Abstract
Lanthanide Single-Molecule Magnets are fascinating objects that break magnetic performance records with observable magnetic bistability at the boiling temperature of liquid nitrogen, paving the way for potential applications in high-density data storage. The switching of lanthanide SMM has been successfully achieved using several external stimuli such as redox reaction, pH titration, light irradiation or solvation/desolvation thanks to the high sensitivity of the magnetic anisotropy to any structural change in the lanthanide surrounding. Nevertheless, the use of applied high pressure as an external stimulus is largely underused, especially considering that it can be combined with high pressure X-ray diffraction to establish a complementary structure-property relationship. This Concept article summarizes the few relevant examples of investigations of lanthanide SMMs under applied high pressure, provides conclusions on the effect of such stimulus on molecular structures and magnetic anisotropy, and finally draws perspective on the future development of magnetic measurements under applied pressure.

Abstract
Heteroanionic compounds, which contain two or more types of anions, have emerged as a promising class of materials with diverse properties and functionalities. In this paper, I review the experimental findings on Ca3ReO5Cl2 and related compounds that exhibit remarkable pleochroism and novel quantum magnetism. I discuss how the heteroanionic coordination affects the optical and magnetic properties by modulating the d-orbital states of the transition metal ions. Subsequently, I compare these materials with other heteroanionic and monoanionic compounds and highlight the potential of A3MO5X2 materials for future exploration of materials and phenomena.

Abstract
The spin crossover phenomena in Co(II) compounds are in the focus of the present paper. A microscopic theoretical approach for the description of spin transitions in mononuclear Co(II) compounds is suggested. Within the framework of this approach there are taken into account two types of interionic interactions that may be operative in the problem such as the electron-deformational interaction and the cooperative Jahn-Teller interaction arising from the coupling of the low-spin state of the Co(II) ion with the tetragonal vibrations of the nearest surrounding. The different role of these interactions in the spin transformation is demonstrated and discussed. On the basis of developed approach a qualitative and quantitative explanation of the experimental data on the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility for the [Co(pyterpy)2](PF6)2, [Co(pyterpy)2](TCNQ)2⋅DMF⋅MeOH and [Co(pyterpy)2](TCNQ)2⋅MeCN⋅MeOH compounds is given.

Abstract
We have studied a Fe-based di-nuclear molecular complex having the chemical formula [{Fe(bpp)(NCS)2}2([Formula: see text]'-bipy)]·2MeOH (where bpp = [Formula: see text]-bis(pyrazol-3-yl) pyridine and [Formula: see text]'-bipy = [Formula: see text]'-bipyridine, 1) using density functional theory and model Hamiltonian approach. Our study provides insight to the pressure driven spin-crossover (SCO) phenomena observed experimentally in these systems. Upon increasing the pressure, the spin state of Fe(II) cation gradually changes from a high spin state (S =2) to a low spin (LS) state (S =0) accompanied by volume contraction. The gradual increase in pressure shrinks Fe-N bond length and also causes angular deviation of the FeN6 octahedron leading to full conversion to the LS state without global structural phase transition. We have carried out exact diagonalization study of an effective single site Hamiltonian and confirmed the importance of intramolecular interaction for SCO phenomena. We have investigated the cooperativity of the observed SCO phenomena. We have also studied the effect of Co doping on the spin state of Fe and find that the spin state of Fe has a subtle dependency on the concentration of dopant atoms. Excess Co doping pave the way towards the possibility of an intermediate spin state for Fe and can give rise to a bistable spin transition process.

Abstract
We present a study of electronic and magnetic properties of nominal magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) (~6 nm) at high pressure in the presence of silicon pressure medium using x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES), x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and non-resonant x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES). XANES data show a reduction of Fe charge state, a change in local environment around Fe at tetrahedral sites, and a reduced occupation of Fe 4p orbitals, not seen in previous pressure studies of bulk magnetite. XMCD data show a continuous magnetic moment reduction of ~50% between ambient pressure and 20 GPa, similar to what was observed in previous bulk magnetite studies. XES spectra of NPs indicate a gradual change in spin configuration away from the high-spin state consistent with a postulated charge transfer from Fe 4p to 3d states and the observed reduction in XMCD signal. Taken together, the results point to substantial differences in the response of electronic and magnetic properties of the nano-counterparts of bulk magnetite at high pressure.

Abstract
The burgeoning field of anion engineering in oxide-based compounds aims to tune physical properties by incorporating additional anions of different size, electronegativity, and charge. For example, oxychalcogenides, oxynitrides, oxypnictides, and oxyhalides may display new or enhanced responses not readily predicted from or even absent in the simpler homoanionic (oxide) compounds because of their proximity to the ionocovalent-bonding boundary provided by contrasting polarizabilities of the anions. In addition, multiple anions allow heteroanionic materials to span a more complex atomic structure design palette and interaction space than the homoanionic oxide-only analogs. Here, established atomic and electronic principles for the rational design of properties in heteroanionic materials are contextualized. Also described are synergistic quantum mechanical methods and laboratory experiments guided by these principles to achieve superior properties. Lastly, open challenges in both the synthesis and the understanding and prediction of the electronic, optical, and magnetic properties afforded by anion-engineering principles in heteroanionic materials are reviewed.

Abstract
The pressure-response of the Co-O bond lengths and the spin state of Co ions in a hybrid 3d-5d solid-state oxide Sr2Co0.5Ir0.5O4 with a layered K2NiF4-type structure was studied by using hard X-ray absorption and emission spectroscopies. The Co-K and the Ir-L3 X-ray absorption spectra demonstrate that the Ir5+ and the Co3+ valence states at ambient conditions are not affected by pressure. The Co Kβ emission spectra, on the other hand, revealed a gradual spin state transition of Co3+ ions from a high-spin (S = 2) state at ambient pressure to a complete low-spin state (S = 0) at 40 GPa without crossing the intermediate spin state (S = 1). This can be well understood from our calculated phase diagram in which we consider the energies of the low spin, intermediate spin and high spin states of Co3+ ions as a function of the anisotropic distortion of the octahedral local coordination in the layered oxide. We infer that a short in-plane Co-O bond length (<1.90 Å) as well as a very large ratio of Co-Oapex/Co-Oin-plane is needed to stabilize the IS Co3+, a situation which is rarely met in reality.

Abstract
We investigated the structural, vibrational, magnetic, and electronic properties of the recently synthesized CaCo3V4O12 double perovskite with the high-spin (HS) Co2+ ions in a square-planar oxygen coordination at extreme conditions of high pressures and low temperatures. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy studies up to 60 GPa showed a conservation of its cubic crystal structure but indicated a crossover near 30 GPa. Above 30 GPa, we observed both an abnormally high "compressibility" of the Co-O bonds in the square-planar oxygen coordination and a huge anisotropic displacement of HS-Co2+ ions in the direction perpendicular to the oxygen planes. Although this effect is reminiscent of a continuous HS → LS transformation of the Co2+ ions, it did not result in the anticipated shrinkage of the cell volume because of a certain "stiffing" of the bonds of the Ca and V cations. We verified that the oxidation states of all the cations did not change across this crossover, and hence, no charge-transfer effects were involved. Consequently, we proposed that CaCo3V4O12 could undergo a phase transition at which the large HS-Co2+ ions were pushed out of the oxygen planes because of lattice compression. The antiferromagnetic transition in CaCo3V4O12 at 100 K was investigated by neutron powder diffraction at ambient pressure. We established that the magnetic moments of the Co2+ ions were aligned along one of the cubic axes, and the magnetic structure had a 2-fold periodicity along this axis, compared to the crystallographic one.
